Paternal exposure to irbesartan coadministered with multiple antihypertensive and antidiabetic drugs: A case report of a baby born healthy

초록

Objective: To report the fetal outcome of a baby with paternal exposure to irbesartan and other antihypertensive and antidiabetic drugs. Case: The baby was conceived by in vitro fertilization with an egg obtained from a woman with untreated diabetes and hypertension and the sperm from a male with type-2 diabetes and hypertension. At the time of sperm donation, he was taking irbesartan 150 mg d-1 in addition to amlodipine, aspirin, carvedilol, glibenclamide, hydrochlorothiazide, metformin, ramipril, and triazolam. At 38 weeks gestation, a 3,090 g female baby was delivered by cesarean section due to placenta previa. At 40 months postnatal age, the baby was 18 kg with normal growth and development. Conclusion: This case suggests that paternal exposure to irbesartan as part of a combination therapy with other antihypertensive drugs and antidiabetics, does not alter sperm cells or increase the risk for fetal malformations. © PremiumReasons.
